THE MISSISSIPPI CASE.
IN. 0. Picayune.l

The press of Jackson, Miss, that
is untrammelsd is making a gal.
LIANT fight against the rich murder
or Hamilton. 1t is a case IN which
the friends Of tho penitentiary les
see, now confined in Jail, will make
a desperate defense of their man,
who disposed Of large sums OF
money in the interest Of the state
ring.
There are many good and brave
men in Mississippi, and the editors
who have taken up the contest at
the seat of government Of Missis-
sippi in this last issue can be relied
upon to carry it bravely forward.
1t is said that Hamilton Is rally
ing the thugs of the state at Jack
son. If this be so his case must be
very desperate. Such efforts will,
however, be met by the gallant
editors of that city who have been
so fearless in their course. They
will prove true to the cause of in
dependent journalism, and will not
be silenced. There is little fear OF
any further assassination in behalf
ofthe state ring there, and if we
Judge rightly of the sentiment in
the state Il is overwhelmingly
against the penitentiary ring, Of
which Colonel Hamilton was the
head.
Colonel Hamilton has been held
in Jail for murder on the prelimi-
nary trial. The grand jury Of his
own city has indicted him aud the
clouds are now gathering around
him so closely that escape seems
next to impossible. It may be he
will suffer, at the hands Of the
Mississippi courts, a sentence Of
servitude in the penitentisry which
he now leases.

Farmers are going into some
kind Of an organization, and Pat
rons of Husbandry should make
strong efforts TO have them organ
ize upon the immovable founda-
ton Of the true principles of the
Grange, with the righteous, lauda-
bic purposes of the Order as the
end TO be accomplished.
There are other organizations
Of farmers besides the Grange; and
while we would not attempt to de-
tract in the least, from their value
to the agricultural interests OF our
country, yet we, as Patrons, be-
lieve that there is none as good az
the Order to which we belong; and
believing thus, we should show our
faith by our Efforts to get those
farmers, who are ready for organi-
cation to come into the Grange.
Farmers are engaged in the
same ancient, honorable, honest,
occupation; their interests are one
and the sama. than. ananias a,.a
united, cunning, strong and com
mon; then it is plainly evident
that farmers should guard their in
terests by organizing into one
compact body, and concentrate
their efforts to accomplish the same
grand purpose. There is no need
Of or room for division, even in
name.-Roanoke Patron.

For awakening thought and
arousing the farmers to action
upon the great questions of the
day, those which never could have
been reached in any other way; the
Grange has made additional proof
the idea that our education is by
no means entirely a product of or
ganized schools, or employed
teachers and printed hooks. While
they occupy very important part,
they are not all that act on our
powers to develop them. Life is
one grand school, and its every
circumstance teacher. The
Grange with its beautiful and prac-
tical lessons, has the power to raise
men and women from the humblest
walks of lite to positions of inAu-
ence and power"-A. J. Rose,

One Thing.

IT is lust as unreasonable to look for
n COW that will do excellent service in
the dairy and yet be profitable for
beef. as il is to look for a horse that
will do excellent work on the farm and
vet on holidays be ready for the race
track. The following from the West
ern Farmer and Stockman is right to
the point:
ASK the man anywhere, and we
know many of them, who has made a
fortune in growing cattle for the mar
ket. if he wants general purpose COW,
and he will tell you he does not; that
he wants beef producing animal and
nothing else. If you ask the man who
has made his way in the world by way
of butter and cheese, he Will just as
surely tell YOU he doesn't want beef;
that every ounce of tallow the COW
laws away upon her frame is so much
butter and cheese, of which he is de-
frauded. These men are all special
lists. and they want their animals to be
SPECIALISTS, and to work for their spe-
cialty and nothing else.
There is eminent good sense IN thlS'
for the specialist COW is just as much
more successful III uOtsatS anu Nche1
over the one who is not a specialist, as
the specialist among men is over his
Jack of -all-trades neighbor. Ii she is
a dairy cow keep her TO a good ripe
age. and give her away or pension her
or what you may, and you will be
money ahead over attempting 70 fatten
her. An old animal, of any kind, does
not fatten readily, and the dairyman
can use the feed 10 better advantage
in giving il 10 milk cow. while the
beef farmer wants TO turn his animals
of when they are young AMI will fat

clude, the general purpose cow is un.

Skim Milk for Calves.

We found young farmer the other
day who boosted of the calf that had
been running with the COW. The
writer questioned him about as fol
| lows;
Question. Do you think it pays to
let calf run with the COW!
Answer. Oh yes, that is the way to
raise fine calves.
CUES. Don't you think you could
have raised as fine calf on sweet
skim milk!
Ans. No. I'm sure we couldn't; it s
an awful big calf and is only three
months old. We were offered 50 for
HIM the other day.
Cues. Is that COW as good as your
other cows!
Ans. Yes, it is about the best cow
we have.
Dues. How much more do you
think it cost to raise that calf, with
the COW, than it would have cost to
raise il on skim milk, and do you think
the calf worth enough more to pay the
differencel
Ans. Well, don't know just how
that would be.
OF course he didn't know, and it IS
very seldom that a man who raises
calves on the whole milk does know
anything about what the calf costs; II
he did he wouldn't do it. A calf
raised on whole milk costs just as
much as three calves raised on skim
milk and handled by man not afraid
to exercise his reasoning faculties.
But to return to the 50 calf. III the
cow, which the young man said was
one of the best in the herd, was worth
keeping at all, she would have pro-
duced cream enough to make pound
of butter per day for the first 30 days
after calving, which at IA cts. would
amount to $3.50, or $3.50 more than
the calf was worth. Instead OF only a
50 calf our friend might have had the
same calf worth just as much and
$l2.60 cash for cream sold, or $2l.oO.
Enterprise and common sense yield
profit even in the dairy business.
If any reader doubts the truth OF
the statement that, as good calf can
be raised on skim milk as on whole
milk, let him call on the writer, who
will show him. within two minutes
walk of the creamery, as fine a lot OF
calves AS there are in Pierce county,
and street. skim milk did it.
River Falls journal. [volume] (River Falls, Pierce County, Wis.) 1872-2019, 1887-09-08
Value of Skim Milk.

We sometimes find a farmer who in
figuring the profits derived from his
cows. takes nothing into account eX'
cent the cream or butter sold. Now,
his skim milk can always be utilized
on the farm so as to return 20 cts. per
cwt.. and sometimes as high as so cts.
This can only be done, however, 10y
raising cream, by the new process,
and Summing the milk so that it may
he fed sweet. Sweet skim milk is
worth twice as much for feeding as
sour milk. The skim milk from the
average COW is worth throughout the
year fully one-half as much as her
cream.
The following letter in Hoard S
Dairyman is evidently from man who
knows what he is talking about. The
time has come when farmers and stock
raisers must study to know the value
of different kinds of food fed, and the
cost of making a hundred pounds OF
beef. pork or milk. A business man
who simply sold goods for what he
could get, regardless of the cost, would
not last long; and it is just as necessary
for a farmer TO know the cost of what
ever he has for sale,-in order that he
NAV quit handling the Improbable
and deal only in profitable merchan-
disc. Mr.. Hill writes as follows;
ED. HoARD's DAIRYMAN:-I have
lust completed an experiment to find
the value of skinned milk for feeding
Young pigs. The experiment was com
menced the day the pigs were taken
from the SOW, and continued one
month. -Four pigs weighed, on July
goth. so lbs, and on Aug. Goth lS5 lbs.
or a nain of 90 lbs. They were fed IN
this time 900 lbs. of sweet SKINNED
milk from our ereamer, 70 lbs. of corn
and IS lbs. of middlings. The corn
and middlings were worth $l.OO, with
the corn at 40 cents per bushel and the
middlings at IS cents per 100 pounds.
The 90 lbs. of pork was worth S4.oO at
the current price of $500 per cwt.
Subtracting from this the cost of the
corn and middlings we have $3.50 LETT
to the credit of the skinned milk, oil
Ace. per 100 lbs. The ratio of album
noids to Carbohydrates in this ration is
| to 81, which makes a slightly more
heterogeneous ration than the German
standard called for, but l think the
results were very satisfactory. l shall
continue this experiment another
month, changing the ration as ! In
crease IL, and will report farther re-
suits in another issue.
